Abstract

Liver transplantation (LT) is a viable treatment option for end-stage hepatic failure. Uludag University Liver Transplant Center has begun performing liver transplant operations in December 2007 and in this article, we review outcomes of 34 cases of LT performed until August 2010 including 30 cadaveric livers and 4 living donors. We achieved a 24-month survival rate of 84.2% in our center and LT surgeries continue with an acceptable success rate.
